Hello, for some of my projects I need to setup different folders for uploading files. Upload path module seems to be user friendly and doing what I need. However I need this to be compatible with Drupal 6.

It seems that development of this module is on hold. I could spare 100 USD for D6 version. So let me know if anyone interesting in development of this module and could create it for our community. After the work is done and the module is available here on Drupal.org, I will pay the money.

Thanks. Installation and settings is working, but the files are still uploaded directly to the /files. I used the settings [type]/[yyyy]/[mm]. Any changes to working state are welcome.

Afraid I just straight converted it, didn't bother to check it worked okay - don't even really know what it does! ;o)

I'll take a look at it, no worries - could do with the cash!

Ah okay it actually does work fine but there's a condition which has a comment;

// if (0 === strpos($key, 'upload_')) { // Only rewrite the name when adding the file, not when updating it

When you comment out that condition the filename is rewritten correctly... So I guess I'll have to find another way to check if the file is being added rather than updated. I'll be right back, just having some dinner.

Bugger, so it seems that the upload module works completely differently in D6.x and although I can get the uploadpath module to only act on newly added files by changing that line to;

if (array_key_exists($key, $_SESSION['upload_files'])) { // Only rewrite the name when adding the file, not when updating it

It *does* change the filename correctly, but it seems that's not enough any more... I'll look into it when I get a minute.

Sorry haven't looked at it at all today, got up at 4am to start work and didn't stop until 9pm... Haven't done much Drupalling today...

I posted a new patch to update the 5.x-1.x-dev code to be 6x compatible:

http://drupal.org/node/237613

or directly at:

http://drupal.org/files/issues/uploadpath_5x_to_6x.patch

It addresses the file upload API changes, and the hook_nodeapi problem that prevented some tokens from working. (http://drupal.org/node/191571)

Thanks,
Richard

Ah awesome, glad someone looked into it - I just haven't had the time this week.

Thanks,

So I think that Sonnen should contact me about the money. This patch is really working.
